I know very little about the several Indian languages and scripts but are some of these even somewhat related? Like in the same way Latin, Cyrillic and Greek are all related?
Yes! Most of them are called Brahmic scripts, because they descend from the Brahmi script, which is thought to come from the Phoenician script through the Aramaic one.
